I had a USPS shipment ghost on me that was en route from Portland, OR to an old coworker out on Nantucket, MA. Contents were a Markin 240 gyuto in WX-15 with a black and white ebony handle, Kochi 210 stainless clad ku gyuto, and a Masamoto KS 240 suji with blonde horn. I took it to the post on the 10th, shipped priority, but my local post office never did a departure scan (last time I click and ship, seriously) so it could be anywhere along the way and I'm out of luck regarding an insurance claim. They keep telling me to be patient, it will get there eventually, but I'd have expected to see some kind of scan by now.
I'm hoping my missing package request and consistent pestering of both local offices, as well as USPS customer service, can help shake it loose, but it's impossible to get in touch with anyone at the respective distribution centers to push any further. They were in a shipping tube, so it seems plausible that they rolled off of a sorting machine and are lost under some equipment, or something like that. Anyways, I figured I'd post here for any more advice y'all might be able to provide, and to tip the community off, get more eyes on eBay, local listings, etc. in case they "fell off a truck" somewhere.
Guess you might be seeing some more BST listings from me in the near future to help recoup losses. Here's a few dumb videos of my messy kitchen and the knives in question--with a brief cameo from my Haburn stainless damascus wedding band.
